Immortal Supreme: Sovereign of the Grand Dao

*****************¶¶*****************

Arthur didn't get up immediately and meditated to stabilize the great leap in his cultivation level.

The essence energy drops within his Dantian were vibrating intensely, and his body was filled with vibrant energy.

In his Dantian, Arthur could 'see' what was inside clearly with his spirit sense. There were a hundred drops of essence energy, divided into ten groups.

Each group of ten drops was of a different elemental nature.

"Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, Lightning, Wood, Light, Darkness, Life, and Death."

"Those were the ten intents that I comprehended and condensed their essence energy in my dantian," Arthur said.

The intent was subdivided into ten ranks and Arthur had reached the tenth rank in all ten intents that he comprehended.

Perfection of Intent!

When a person reaches the tenth rank of any intent, he or she is said to have reached the perfection of intent.

"The next realm is the concept..."

Arthur refined his energy and the vibrating spirit essence in him was finally settled and his Dantian became as calm as a lake.

Letting out a breath Arthur stood up, wondering, 'How long did I cultivate this time?'

*Grugh!*

His stomach growled in response, "It must have been a long time huh," Arthur chuckled and left the room.

Just as he opened the door, he saw Luke with a raised arm as though he wanted to knock.

"Master, you are finally out!" Luke spoke excitedly and then let out a sigh of relief.

"What is it?" Arthur noticed a bit of urgency in Luke's tone.

"It has been a week since you entered closed-door cultivation and Miss Helia has already left. And also the Heavenly Sword Sect is recruiting disciples today!" Luke spoke quickly.

"What?!"

-----------------

Sometime later...

Arthur asked Luke to explain in detail while he gets something to eat. And he found out that Helia had returned to the Hartfield Empire under the protection of someone that Old Man Whitebeard prepared for her.

It turns out that the Royal Academy will be carrying out a special training program for its disciples and Helia did not want to miss it, as she needed to grow stronger and complete Arthur's mission for her.

"Old Man Whitebeard said you have to take the test to become a disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect. He left a while ago and asked me to get you prepared as soon as possible," Luke concluded his explanation.

*Burp!*

Arthur responded with a loud burp, finishing the last food on the plate in from of him.

"Sorry about that...haven't eaten in an entire week," Arthur said in embarrassment.

Luke only nodded and said nothing more. He was still surprised by the amount of food Arthur just consumed.

"So when is the examination starting?" Arthur asked and brought out a small of coins from his inner pocket, and placed it on the table.

He could not use his spacial ring openly like before, and he had already used the treasure mask he had to change his facial appearance, and even his white hair was changed to black.

He now had an average face and black pupils, with a more mature chin, making him look a bit older than he was. He also changed his clothes to an all-black robe.

"The examination will be starting by noon, and looking at the sky, it should be almost time now," Luke said as he looked out the window from the restaurant where they were.

"Alright, let's get going then," Arthur stood up and Luke followed.

As they left a waiter came and took the money that Arthur left on the table and counted it, finding it to be more than what was served, he sneaked a few into his pocket unnoticed by anyone and whistled to the counter.

---------

On a square that covered a very large area, thousands of teenagers could be seen waiting eagerly for the beginning of the Heavenly Sword Sect's Examination.

Arthur had just arrived here with Luke and was not too surprised at the number of those who wanted to enter the sect.

As one of the most powerful forces on the continent, the Heavenly Sword Sect had great renown in all territories. It was the go-to sect for all aspiring and growing sword cultivators.

With them have the best legacies and teachings on the Sword Dao, unmatched by any other on the continent. It was a very good sect to join.

Arthur looked around and saw a lot of different faces making him think to himself, 'Wonder how many will make it?'

"The Examiners are here!" Shouted a loud voice and the crowd went quiet immediately.

Arthur looked ahead of him and saw a group of people descend from flying swords on a raised platform that was high enough for everyone in the crowd to see them.

The group was made up of four people. An old man in a grey robe, with short-grey hair and a low-cut beard. He had a dull look in his eyes as he scanned the crowd.

The other three were two males and one female. They looked like they were in their twenties and had a serious look on them, mostly because they were focused on the elder.

After a few seconds without saying anything, the Elder opened his mouth to speak.

"I am Londes, an Outer Court Elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect, and I will be preceding over this year's examination!" He didn't appear to speak loudly but everyone heard him clearly as though he was speaking right in front of them.

Arthur knew that was possible using a special augmenting technique.

"The examination is divided into three tests. The first is a test of will, and the second is a test of comprehension, and the last will be announced to you if you managed to last that long," Elder Londes continued.

"A test of will...I wonder how that will be tested?"

"A test of will, I haven't done that before."

Murmurs arose among the crowd with many asking how their wills will be tested.contemporary romance

"Silence!" One of the male disciples that stood behind Elder Londes shouted.

The crowd quickly obliged and Elder Londes continued with his speech.

"The first test...the test of willpower is simple actually. All you have to do is endure the pressure that I will impose on all of you and you will pass as long as you remain standing at the end."

"With that out of the way, the first test...begins now!"
